July has been a busy month for Bradley Askew, also known for his work under the moniker Smile Maker. He has been hard at work producing imagery for two up-coming solo shows in the month of August: “Graphic Violence,” an ode to rebellion, youth and his own culture, at REAX Space and the monthly artist window at Urban Outfitters.

Bradley gives me a little preview of the work for his upcoming exhibits and explains the thoughts behind them.“Graphic Violence”When: August 7th, 2009Where: Reax SpaceTime: 7 p.m.
